TIE SIZE OF THE BUILDING.


Some idea Of the size Of the building may be
had when il is known that in the two build
inrs there are 43, 800 square feet of available
space. nearly an acre. The counter surface
alone aggregates more than g. 900 square feet
sufficient TO form a continuous counter feet
4 inches vide along the curb from the Boston
Store TO the Treasury Department. The wood
used in the finishing and fittings are mainly
cherry and poplar, brought to mahogany
color and polished. The principal stories are
treated in colCrs, the ceilings in graded tias
of delicate blue and ecru, and the walls Ut
licht terra Gotta, with wide decorated trieze.
This work has been very artiSlically done by
Mcssrs Emmer Il Quarterly of this city. Ac-
cess to all the stories is obtained by two pas
s.nger elevators, with handsome cars, mahos-
any finish. with plate-glasS beYelled mirrors,
each held by tour wire cable 4 freight ele
vator receives goods directly from the alley Il

are hydrauhc elevators, from Messrs' Otis Bro.
Co., OF New York, and are furnished with
all the modern appliances for insuring safety.

which they introduced into this city, with I'M

are located aboee the level Of the shelving -
THIS 81 stem has been thoroughly tested and
found to De most satisfactory, aud the neat
track aud other excellent work manshi9 of this
miniature elevated road is rather an attractive
feature.
PRECAUTIONS AGAINST FIRE.
Every precaution has been taken to guard
against fire, not only by locating the boilers
away from the building and encasing piping
with asbestos but also by the putting Of Il FIRE
escape in the rear where there is large yard }
with communication from the several stories
On the roof is constructed an elevated balcony
which commands an extended view of the city
